    I am now addicted to fostering kittens.

    That is adorable.

    How could I not be.

    I don’t think it’s possible.
    I got a weird tick, whenever i am walking stairs, i am counting the steps in my head, and it has to be a equal number on the end, and i have to end with my right foot.
    So when i know there is a stair with 13 steps, i go 1, and then 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12

    If i come across a new stair, i first count the steps so i don't step "wrong"

    They tell me this is part of my OCD
    I used to be the same with tiles when walking outside, walking only on the lighter tiles

    Really G? That’s interesting.

    I've been singing since I was three years old and, when I was 18, was told that I could have made it at the Met (as in Metropolitan Opera). Sadly, I never took that path... but I must have music in my life daily. I love to sing & dance.

    Fun fact...I never sleep. Ok, that’s a lie. I don’t sleep nearly enough. Some nights only 1-2 hours. And it’s not good. Trying to change.

    You can try. But I probably would find a way to start talking and keep us both up. Lol.

    I've thought of several things I wanted to post here but was too lazy to look for the thread 😂...

    I’ve been to 47 concerts (at least the ones I remember).
    The majority were in the 70s and early 80s.

    I used to regularly buy 10 boxes of lucky charms breakfast cereal then open them all to take out all the marshmallows to put in Tupperware so I can eat them as a snack in bed while reading.

    Until my Husband (Boyfriend at the time) bought me a bicycle last Spring, I hadn't ridden one in over 40 years... You do pick up where you left off and I guess never forget!

    When I was young, first school, we had a time in class when everyone sits on the floor and beanbags while listening to the teacher. Used to be that most boys would get the beanbags first so the teacher decided to make it boys one day and girls the next so she told everyone that only those wearing skirts get to use the beanbags the next day.............The next day I went to school in a skirt and got to sit on the beanbags!!!
